Pushy Bridal Sales People

I went shopping for a wedding dress the other day and felt really pushed by the sales people. We might be having a venue change (from a bigger venue space in a hotel to a restaurant) which would change the kind of dress I want and they wouldn’t take no as an answer. Is this a normal experience it really made me not want to come back and I felt a bit bullied. I included the dress I tried on just to get an honest opinion if this dress fits as well as they made it out to be in the salon.

Help! I’m starting to over think
It’s hard to put into words how I’m feeling about the dress I chose. I felt pressured for time at the dress shop to order a dress bc they said it was late and worry I chose something to just settle. I like the style but am worried it so common and I could have found something that flattered me more. I have a tendency to overthink and second guess ☹️

SIL wore near white wedding dress to the wedding

The dresscode was summer pastel chique, so think easter colors.
The gf of the grooms brother wore a sage green (wedding) dress that in no way, shape or form appeared to be sage green, or any other color.

The veil she's carrying was the flower girl's (her daughter)
This was after the MIL had asked the bride if she could wear a white jumpsuit to the wedding. To which the bride obviously said no.

Wedding guest tries to upstage bride. (Found today in a different sub.) The custom made dress complete w/ train belongs to the GUEST, who went on to publicly shame the bride for complaining…

Additional photos in comments; including her shame posting…

I hate my wedding dress

I’m 4 months out and I hate my wedding dress. I tried on too many dresses honestly and never had a moment when I tried on “the one.” The bridal shop was running a deal on the dress I ended up buying. I thought I liked it in the mirror but when I look back at photos of it, all I see is how my stomach looks in it. I do love the back of the dress. I really don’t want to buy a new dress but I also don’t want to hate every one of my wedding photos. Does anyone have advice for this? Is it as unflattering as I think it is in my head or am I being unnecessarily hard on myself? Everyone says they love it when I ask, but I also doubt anyone is giving me a real opinion.

*If* this won't zip, do I have options for alterations?
Bought this Mary's Bridal 6160 off StillWhite because someone else on Reddit posted it and I knew I would never be able to stop thinking about it. The fit was a hit or miss but I took the chance. I cannot tell if it will zip or not because I can't reach behind me that far. I still need to have my mom/sister come over and help me with zipping it up but that won't happen for a few weeks. If it ends up not zipping do I have options? I was hoping the corset back would grant me some grace but feeling a little worried about whether this is workable or not. Thanks so much in advance!

Need help!
My mother is convinced that sweetheart necklines aren’t as nice as vneck and now I can’t decide which dress I like.

Any advice would be amazing! These are my top three

30 thrift store find
Fits like a glove! Going to sew some pearls on the neckline and sleeves and add a petticoat for extra fullness in the skirt.

Torn between 2 dresses and can’t decide!
Please help me decide!

Dress number 1 was one of the first dresses I tried on and nothing came close to it until I tried on dress number 2!

I love both dresses so much but they are so different. The first dress is very stylish and the second dress is very elegant. The fabric of the first dress is very soft and unique but the second dress makes my body look amazing and I know my fiancé would love that style 🤣

They both cost the same, but the first dress is currently on sale which is why I need to decide ASAP!
